What do you like best about the product?
The power of SDM is the simplictly it brings to a simple day to day tasks.
The idea that protected cloud resources are just apporachable directly for every team member, directly from his workstation is irreplaceable.
The frequency of use is - always. every developer or product member uses it all the time.
The customer support is really cool with very good SLA.
The integration with the environment and the implementation was really easy, just created an EC2, installed SDM and received immideit value.

It would help if you had a capable team to manage it.
There are also a lot of useful features that are coming shortly but for the moment the core features are there and working decently well with few bugs.
The price is not for everyone.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have multiple k8s clusters, databases, VMs and probably something else and with strongdm everyone that have access can connect to the needed resource in no time.
No more sloppy VPN connection to deal with. Big time saver and much smoother process to connect and switch environment.

A+ Software, A Must When Security Is Paramount But Users Need Access!
What do you like best about the product?
In Kubernetes, it makes switching between contexts, providing access (both role-based and temporary), and configuring your local kube config so seamless and so easy, it is actually painless. We handle dozens of environments and hundreds of datasources, and by leveraging their sdm CLI util, macbook app, and SDK, we are able to provision and maintain it all, with little-to-no issues. We use it multiple times a day and our dev teams use it multiple times an hour. Great customer service with timely, insightful responses. It was fairly easy to integrate into our existing infra.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would not say 'dislike' persay, but there is functionality we are waiting to see included in the sdm CLI to make managing some of the admin resources a bit easier. There is also an odd bug involving incorrect ports/local ports *sticking* to some datasources in the SDM macbook client app. Easy enough to workaround, though. It is a rare occurence.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Maintaining and provisioning hundreds of users and thousands of datasources in an organized, secure, and easy-to-use manner.
Powerful, excellent, does one thing extremely well.
What do you like best about the product?
Gives me secure access fast, when I need it.

The menu bar UI is a *little* weird and non-traditional.
